1
Suzanne takes you down
2
To her place near the river
3
You can see the boats go by
4
And you can spend the night forever
5
And you know she's half crazy
6
And that's why you want to be there
7
And she feeds you tea and oranges
8
That come all the way from China
9
And just when you mean to tell her
10
That you have no love to give her
11
She gets you on her wavelength
12
And she lets the river answer
13
That you've always been her lover
14
And Jesus was a sailor
15
When He walked upon the water
16
And He spent a long time watching
17
From a lonely wooden tower
18
Yes, and when He knew for certain
19
Only drowning men could see Him
20
He said, all men will be sailors then
21
Until the seas free them
22
But He, Himself was broken
23
Long before the sky would open
24
Forsaken and almost human
25
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
26
And you want to travel with Him
27
And you want to travel blind
28
And you think maybe you'll trust him
29
'Cause He's touched your perfect body with His mind
30
Suzanne takes your hand
31
And she leads you besides the water
32
She is wearing rags, feathers
33
From Salvation Army counters
34
And the sun pours down like honey
35
On our lady of the harbor
36
She shows you where to look
37
Between the garbage and the flowers
38
There are heroes in the seaweed
39
There are children in the morning
40
They are leaning out for love
41
And they will lean that way forever
42
While Suzanne holds the mirror
43
You want to travel with her
44
And you want to travel blind
45
And you think maybe you can trust her
46
'Cause she's touched your perfect body with her mind
